power to the main electrical bus and the tie bus.<br />
2. ALTERNATOR SWITCH ON<br />
Depress the ALTERNATOR SWITCH to the ON position to allow the<br />
alternators to energize after the engines are started.<br />
3. PRIME COMPLETE<br />
COMPLETE the appropriate procedure (see page 15) to PRIME the engine<br />
before attempting to start the engine.<br />
4. PROP AREA CLEAR<br />
Visually check that the PROP AREA and all quadrants around the aircraft is<br />
clear from personnel or obstructions (i.e. chocks, tie-downs, etc.) and call<br />
out, “Clear Prop.” Allow time for any response prior to starting the engine.<br />
NOTE<br />
Headsets must not be worn until after engine start to ensure<br />
hearing any response from the callout, or to immediately hear<br />
any abnormal sound after engine start (i.e., starter failing to<br />
disengage, cylinder misfire, etc.). If an adjacent aircraft is being<br />
fueled, wait until the fueling process is complete before starting<br />
the engine.<br />
